We’ve been waiting for this engagement shoot for 6 years! That’s odd to say, right? ;) We actually photographed the wedding of Yvonne’s brother in 2014 and she said as soon as her time came to get married, that she wanted Sam & I to shoot her wedding too! And after 10 years of dating Dan, we joked with Yvonne, what a year to pick to finally get married, haha. But Yvonne said she wouldn’t have their love story any other way <3
Read MoreSometimes a photo shoot is well worth the wait! For Dustin & Elizabeth’s session, we not only had to reschedule due to quarantine, but also because all the barber shops were closed and Dustin, understandably, didn’t want the hair of a hippy for photos ;) But what did all that rescheduling mean? These gorgeous flower bushes were in full bloom for our shoot! Along with a beautiful Spring day, complete with sunshine, blue skies, and white fluffy clouds. All the stunning scenery these two were hoping for!
Read MoreWhat a FUN couple for our first Engagement Session of 2020, and well worth the WAIT! We had to reschedule again & again due to that unpredictable western PA weather and, of course, due to COVID-19. So why not have a little fun with it? ;) I love the cute masks Eric & Erin brought to the shoot! And after some pre-session chatting, Erin & I thought a few props would add a little fun & personality to their photos, by representing how they met…she got a new job as a Teacher and Eric was the Aide in her classroom!
Read More“Flirt like you’re in a Hallmark Christmas Movie” ;) That’s what I told Curtis + Lauren for their engagement photos while they baked cookies! Man, was I excited for this session, adding a new option for our couples with Lifestyle Sessions…comfy, cozy at home, doing the things you love to do as a couple: playing with the dog, baking in the kitchen, cuddling on the couch, slow dancing barefoot, sipping wine or hot chocolate OR BOTH =D
